SKF AB (OTCPK:SKUFF) Shareholder Yield % Explanation
Shareholder Yield % is how much money shareholders receive from a company that is in the form of cash dividends, net stock repurchases, and debt reduction. The term was coined by William W. Priest of Epoch Investment Partners in a paper in 2005 entitled The Case for Shareholder Yield as a Dominant Driver of Future Equity Returns. William Priest indicated that "shareholder yield is a term that we came up with to reflect the various ways dividends can be paid to owners of a business in a publicly-traded company."
Dividend Yield % shows how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its stock price, which is most obvious form of shareholder return.
Buyback Yield % is the net repurchase of shares outstanding over the market capital of the company. Shares repurchases also increase shareholder value by returning the money back to shareholders.
Net Debt Paydown Yield % is the change in average of four quarters of company's total debt over a company's market cap. Assuming the total value of a company remains that same, shareholder value is increased as debt is reduced.

SKF's history goes back to the first major patents in ball bearings, when in 1907 it was the first to patent the self-aligning ball bearing. SKF and Schaeffler Group are the top two global ball bearing suppliers, followed by Timken, NSK, NTN, and JTEKT. Combined, these six companies supply about 60% of the world's ball bearings. However, most of them have sector niches, as ball bearings for industrial purposes are engineered for specific applications. SKF is based in Sweden and has a global manufacturing footprint of 106 sites and about 17,000 global distributor locations. The firm operates under two segments: industrials, with a fairly fragmented customer base; and automotive, which is the opposite, with a concentrated customer base including the likes of Tesla.
